“Could it be?”

Chris’s brows furrowed.

During this period, due to the theft of Rufael’s skull, the elves had begun to encircle and annihilate the hunters.

In the beginning, it was still fine. Most of the hunters had been eliminated, but one of the teams of hunters was very powerful. There was actually a beginner mage hidden within.

Just a while ago, the elf team they had sent out mysteriously disappeared one after another. It was a little strange.

Chris had a vague feeling that this matter was not that simple.

Mages had a natural bonus and were stronger than humans in the same realm. Among them, a team that had a Level 9 Beginner Mage had also mysteriously disappeared.

Hunters mostly comprised teams of magic apprentices or swordsman apprentices. Their purpose was to make money.

A beginner mage had their pride. Even within the elves, they were an extraordinary existence. They would never join the infamous hunters.

Too many things had happened among the elves and his Aunt Miene had also been poisoned. Since Chris had already met her, he had to figure it out.

After thinking this through, he rushed to the source of the magic waves.

…

“You have already fallen into our magic trap. I advise you not to fight for naught. It’s useless.”

More than ten hunters surrounded the elf patrol squad.

Frankly, with the strength of this elf team, they should not have been surrounded.

However, these hunters were too cunning. They had captured one of the elves and lured them here. They had then fallen into the magic trap that they had long set up.

The strength of these hunters was not ordinary. There were two Level 9 mages and they had sealed the surrounding space.

The elf team was trapped here. They could not even send out a magic signal and could only become captives.

Even so, the elves were not afraid. Instead, they were full of fighting spirit and looked at the hunter in front of them with hatred.

Chris was on the ancient tree, observing everything around him. This was definitely not an ordinary hunter.

There were two beginner mages and the remaining Level 9 magic apprentice. This force was not ordinary even in human territories.

There was a hint of schemes within.

Chris was not in a hurry to make a move. He wanted to see if he could dig out the big fish behind this group of hunters.

“The elves only die in battles. They don’t surrender.”

“Yes, even if we sacrifice ourselves, there will be other brothers who will avenge us. If you want us to surrender, that will never happen.”

“We will fight, fight ’til the last moment of the battle!”

These elves burst out with a strong will to fight. Some of them were already riddled with wounds, but they continued to fight.

They fought to the end, to the last moment of their lives.

All of this was witnessed by Chris. Even he was indiscernibly affected by this cohesive force.

This was his race, the place where his family was, and also the place that he risked his life to protect.

Despicable hunters.

Regardless of background, as long as they hurt the elves or wanted to break the balance of the elf race, they would be his enemies.

At the same time, as he watched the elves who refused to surrender, Kent lowered his cold gaze.

They originally wanted to use a magic ball to record the appearance of the elves’ surrender and spread it throughout the continent to create chaos.

This was only the first step.

However, the cohesion of the elves was too strong. The few teams of elves that they had captured all showed fearless spirits.

This could not help but anger him.

“Since you are so stubborn, then die!”

Kent was already enraged.
